A tiger died in the forest park. But death in China is not the end, because it is a tiger. In chinese tradition, tiger's bone has magic power which can be made into wine and medicine. Northeast Tiger is one of endangered animals in China. It's very hard to get its bone now a days,and the government prohibited to make tiger's bone wine and other products 14 years ago. How to deal with the tiger's body? Some scholars said it cost millions to breed the tigers, to sell the dead tiger's body can meet part of the cost. But I don't think so. Once the market demand is activated, what will be happen? They will try to breed more and more tigers for commercial use...and then there will be no different with a piggery.
